I liked it.
Way better than “I’m Lauren and I am a cheap whore”.
Positive.
Cute.
Happy.

Looks cool. Happy to welcome Windows 7. Hope next generation starts.

Hate it.
Not that I bash MS: I use Win7 RC as my main OS, and I LOVE it! But when is MS gonna start using normal ads?

Nothing to say :-)
They should show the features of 7 that would interest me more i think. I am OSX all the way but i would still watch if they showed me something it did (apart from slideshows hmmm).

I like it. Much better than “I’m a smug Mac user” ;)

ok.. so THIS is the best MS can do?
Relying on a cute kid to sell your product?
Nothing clever or smart about cute.
not saying anything about the OS, but the ad sucks…..

Holy craptastic, that is one of biggest POS ad campaigns I have ever seen.
“Switch to Windows 7 because it doesn’t suck as much as out previous versions”
Great. Way to set that bar high.
